By default, these tools are also available on the local (right-click) menu.When creating the first render of a model, the easiest way is to select one of the render modes and accept the default lights.
...
Tip: You can modify the lights by selecting View / Lights. For more details, see Lights.
...
There are several ways to modify and enhance your rendering:
- Adjust render properties (see Render (Camera) Properties)
- Modify or add lights (see Lights)
- Define object materials (see Materials)
- Create a render scene environment (see Environments)
You can use all 3D tools (as well as most 3D editing tools) in both wireframe and render modes. To render only specific objects, select those objects before selecting the render mode. To return to Wireframe or another render mode, click the relevant icon or use the View / Camera menu.
Quality Rendering
Creates the most photorealistic image with respect to shading, color, reflection, texture, and other qualities. For complex models, this type of rendering can be slow.
...
Quickly creates a rendered view. The parameters are more limited than with Quality rendering, and the view will not be as detailed. The OpenGL and LightWorks Lightworkss rendering types are available for this mode.
...
Drag and drop maneuvers are also not available in render mode. Therefore, you cannot drag objects in or out of the Blocks or Symbols Palettes (though the Format menu commands are available). You also cannot drag objects into other drawings.
...
Lightworks Settings
The LightWorks Lightworks settings under Options/LightWorksLightworkss will effect any render or saved raster file created with render styles. They are on by default. Transparency Shadow: Specifies whether a render created with a render style will support shadows cast by transparent objects. This toggles the Shadow Transparency setting for every Luminance which has Shadow Transparency turned on.
